  • Talked to some knob the other day who was talking about ruling his small business with, and I quote "an iron fist"

    Thankfully that's not a common interaction but I do notice more hostile folks recently.

  • I actually keep seeing other repost bots show up

    Me too. I was bummed because I had already blocked one and then another one popped up. For places I was already subscribed to that didn't seem to be bot posts before.

  • My week just started cause I work Mon-Fri and I'm super nervous for tomorrow cause I have a project I have to do with someone I am not use to working with.

    I'm gonna go get an edible after work though and hopefully I run into my crush.

  • Seinfeld made a joke about how car rental companies don’t understand what a “reservation” actually is nearly thirty fucking years ago and jack fucking shit has changed

    Not only that but holy shit if a lot of customer service interactions aren't just like that now. They use doublespeak to get around customers and look for ways to give people indirect answers so no one ever gets any real help.

  • Yeah, I wasn't taking issue. I was providing information.

  • Why do you think I'm arguing with you?

  • Yes but those are both fattening. what's the point in eating healthy food if you're just gonna dump fat all over it?

  • Newsradio was a fantastic show. You think it was filled with bad acting? How much of it did you watch?

  • Remember that fucking jackass, Ben Shapiro that he had on all the time?

    I think it was Tony Hitchcliff who's a stand up who was on Rogans show fucking begging him to not have stupid ass Shapiro on anymore and Rogan kept defending the guy and Tony was just like, dude.. that guy is a fucking dork who makes you look bad. Stop having him on.

    Honestly one of the funniest interactions I heard on the podcast where his actual friend is begging him to stop this nonsense and he just won't do it.

  • You know, I once tried to explain to someone on reddit that Joe Rogan wasn't always bald and there is evidence of this when he was on Newsradio and he had a full head of hair back then.

    Idiot on reddit just kept arguing that he was always bald and didn't even care that video evidence was being posted because it was more important to hate Rogan than to accept factual evidence of something so incredibly minimal on the scale of things.

    Like why would it be important if he was bald or not? And why would hating him be more important than something being a fact?

    Anyway, I asked cause I love Newsradio but often can't talk about it because people will either figure out that Joe Rogan was on there, or they already know and then think I'm a psychotic alt right idiot.

    All because I watch a show that existed before that guy was ever doing a podcast.

  • For example, “Should I do A or B?” If you ask for “this or that” it is clear to the listener that you considered your options already and have invested sufficient thought to your question. Therefore they can just offer you their opinion as it is asked.

    Ask customer if it's this or that - they respond with just "yes"

    You underestimate how stupid the general public truly is.

  • On that note, I hate question dodgers. Especially since I work online chatting with customers, and I'll ask them something direct, like "when were you meant to receive this check" and they fucking come back with "So my check is missing"

    Like damn, fuckhead. I am already aware your check is missing. Definitely not what I asked. And I can't tell if they are just that brand of dumb or if they're being difficult on purpose.

  • I tried to switch to Mastodon a few times in the past, before the twitter issues were even happening and I could just never get into it.

    And you're right, the only reason I was ever on twitter is because I was following artists that weren't anywhere else. Now I'm not on there and some of those artists never moved platforms because it was a hassle for them to and they risk losing their audience when they move platforms cause you can never just expect people to follow you as an artist.

  • How do we fix the insecurities of alt right white supremacists who spend their free time getting off on antagonizing people for the sake of upsetting someone?

    Some of them even want someone to try and fix them so they can use that for their own personal entertainment.

  • Something I learned about the Rwandan genocides in 1994 is that comparing humans to insects is one of the first steps of genocidal ideology.

  • I'm not sure what you're talking about in regards to what I was saying?

  • Some people do things like this under the idea that you should keep your enemies close. Like you should always know your enemy and in order to do that, you have to be right there, listening to what the enemy is saying.

  • i meant that the person i know is not qanon

    Part of this is bad phrasing because you are unaware of the movement but no one knows who Qanon is.

    What people are talking about in this thread are people who follow the movement, and not who Qanon is. Of course your friend isn't Qanon. That would be absurd.

    But how do you know they aren't posting on 4chan and following the movement? Is that what you are trying to say, that they don't follow that sort of thing because you think its a movement that solely rooted in American politics?

  • i don’t think we have those kind of people here in asia

    qanon is a 4chan/8chan thing that is part of www - that includes people posting from Asian countries. There are definitely Asians on there. There were definitely Asians who went along with that movement.

    I'm Asian too. Has nothing to do with the qanon movement.
